The problem is VerifyLogin.java is getting an error

Import ArgumentCountException cannot be resolved

Or any reference I have to ArgumentCountException cannot be resolved to a type.

When importing your class, it should be done as below:

//Current package name for the VerifyLogin Class (All package names should be lowercase by convention)
package packageforcurrentclass;

//Import statements: import thedependencyclasspackage.thedependencyclassname
import exceptionpackage.ArgumentCountException;

public class VerifyLogin 
{
...
}

In java if you need to import a class then you need to use the full qualified name for that class, as the following:

import packageName.YourClass;

For Example, if your need to use Scanner class, then you need to import it as:

import java.util.Scanner;

But if the class was withing the same package, you don't need to import it.
